O'BRIEN,s CRUSADE.

1t is debatable question whether
Editor O'BRIEN has benefited the Irish
cause or not by his visit to Canada and
his personal attack on the governor gem
erai of the Dominion. There are some
reasons to believe that O'BRIEN's cru
SADIE has been beneficial. But the benefit
is more pereeptible in the states than it
has been in Canada. On this side of the
line there are none of the prejudices in
favor Of the mother country which exist
in Canada. Neither are there selfish
considerations to influence the people
Of the states. Consequently, Mr..
O'BRIEN was looked upon here more
as the representative of the Irish cause,
and Lord LANsDowNE was regarded as
representing the Tory party. Naturally
the sympathy of the people on this side
OF the line were more in sympathy with
the agitatOr. The fact that the rep
resentatiyes of American journal
ism attended Mr.. O'BRIEN on his
travels and were victims with him of
the assaults of the mobs, only served to
enlist our sympathies more strongly in
behalf. But so far as Canada is con-
cerned it was different. When Mr..
OBRIEN went into the Dominion and
announced that the purpose of his com
ing was to make a personal fight against
Lord LANsDowNE the pride of the
people was touched, and it was the most
natural thing in the world that they
should stand by their ruler. 1t is true
that the Irish. agitator made it uncom-
Portable for Canada's governor general.
But if his purpose was to build up an
Irish party in the Dominion he missed

THEATER FIRES.

The Partisan theater horror, which re
suited in the death of 200 people, will
probably have a statutory effect in causing
a thorough inspection of every theater
III this as well as other countries.
Not only should particular attention
be given to the matter of providing suf-
ficlent exits, if they do not already ex-
1st, but there should be precautions
against fire lacking in no detail what
ever. Had there been a regular fire
guard in the Partisan theater and suf-
ficient exits, the fire might have been
smothered i'll time and the people would
have all escaped. The Parisians have
no doubt learned lesson of the utmost
value, but they have paid fearful price
for it. Most theaters in this country,
too, are veritable fire-traps. Those built
within recent years, it is true,
are generally as nearly safe as
il is possible to make them,
but those of an earlier date are
usually very much open to criticism.
The st. Paul opera house is very much
above the average, but in regard to pro-
vision against fire and in the number of
Its exits, it is still susceptible of i'm
proVements. Even though strong

COAL HOLE COVERINGS.

Upon the principle that an ounce Of
prevention is worth a pound of cure, the
jury in the case of ADAMS Isls Nc
ALIISTER and others yesterday, in ad-
dition to rendering a verdict for large
damages, felt impelled to ask the court
to inform the city authorities that the
present coverings of areas and coal holes
i'll the city of st. Paul are ordinarily I'M
safe and of improper construction.
This is fact so patent to the ordinary
observer it hardly needed suggestion
from the jury to call public attention to
it. 1t may be possible, however, that a
notice Of this kind served by court
upon the authorities, may have bene-
fetal influence in bringing about a
change in respect to this matter and
render street Professionalism measurably
safe. The people Of the city can better
afford to defray the expense of con-
Struction SAT- coverings for the areas
and coal holes than to pay the damages
that are liable to occur from the rattle
traps now in use.

OUR BREATHING SPOTS.

Though the Twin cities do not possess
many extensive breathing spots within
their limits they are vastly more for
tunateiy situated with regard to great
natural parks easy Of access than the
majority of the world.
A score of lakes, surrounded by shady
woods and refreshing glens, can be
reached in short ride from the city,
and form breathing places unsurpassed.
And it is coming about that st. Paul
and Minneapolis people are annually
approaching the lakes better. They
begin to see that nature has been Won
derfully lavish in beStowing her gifts
upon Minnesota and that it is good
thing to take advantage of natures mu-
nificence. Hundreds of people will
probably make an exodus to the lakes
to-day, weather permitting, and enjoy a
season of brief but thorough rest mid
cooling groves. That is as it should be.
They will return tired, of course,
but it will br healthy fatigue. They
will sleep sounder and get up Monday
morning feeling more refreshed because
of it. Every one who possibly can
should spend at least one day of the
week out of the city. 1t is not necessary
to go to one of the fashionable hotels at
a popular lake resort, though that is
pleasant enough, for those who
like that sort of thing; but
just as much solid enjoyment can
be obtained and even more benefit
secured, by brief stay at some one of
the less frequented but equally attract
i've lakes. And don't go Selfishly alone.
Take your wife and babies with you,
if you happen to be blessed with such,
and if you are not, take your sweetheart,
and if you haven't a sweetheart, get
one; there's lassie for every lad, the
Scotch inform us. In any event, if you
are suffering from lassitude, WEAKNESS
or overwork, try the lakeside cure. Our
word for it, you wont regret it.

LAKE MINNETONKA.
Preparations For the Opening of
the Season in Two Weeks,

Although the large hotels on the lake
do not open formally until the middle
of June, yet the lake and her people are
showing many signs of life, and the in
dications are that the present season
will be very prosperous one in every
sense. The hotels generally are
undergoing repairs and making
additions which are called for by
the expected increase of patronage. Al
ready many of the lake cottages are oc-
cupied, and daily new arrivals are COM
menced. The steamers are rapidly
being gotten up into condition, and al
ready many are plying between the inn
pOrtant points on the lake, especially
the smaller steamers.
Excelsior expects busy season and a
much increased growth by the entrance
of the Manitoba road. By June l this
road will be completed and by the 10th
ten daily trains will be run. Her five
hotels, White house, Longview, Stet-
son, Sampson and American, have been
undergoing repairs ann will i'm few
days open. At Wayzata the Gleason
house has opened and some of the latest
arrivals are Mrs. f. M. Barrow, Pom
tiac, Mich, ]. NJ. Daily, of Minneapolis,
and f. E. Wheeler and wife.
AT MapleWOOd MeSSrS. fneppS Is.

taken up abodes in their summer cot
tageS, and at Northwood MessrS. r. ID.
Warner, Col. Ripley, j. c. Colt, G. A.

Williams have done likewise. Hotel
Lafayette opens ON the 18th of June and
Lake Park on the 18th, the latter under
the management of Mr.. Harrington, of
Indianapolis.
At Lake Park and other points many
families have entered their cottages,
Among those at Lake Park are Judge
Young, j. l.. Sphinx, G. W. Cyphers and
Miss Tompson.
At Cottagewood there are Messrs. A.

being passed between the battery

arms marked parallel streaks across
the diamond. His head was down and
he had the general appearance of man
reaching for something with both hands
and feet at once. AS he neared the
home plate his head dropped lower
toward the ground, the dust began
to fly faster, he seemed to
be doing some kind of contortion
act, where his legs were hung at right
angles to his body, The crowd began
to yell when he was half way home.
AT each step it yelled louder, and when
in cloud of of dust he sat astride the
home plate, the spikes in one shoe
pointing toward st. Anthony Hill

Now that MoDJEsKA is to follow so

and LANGTRY there will be the fullest
opportunity for lis to judge by COMPARE
son of the respective merits of the
famous dramatic trio. There has been
story current for years. and for which
there was nOfOundation, that MoDJESKA
was the daughter of Polish prince and
was cut off without shilling because
she went on the stage. She was the
daughter of Polish music teacher who
lived in Cracow.
~
MODJESKA'S maiden name was
HELENA OPIDo, and her father gave
her Greek name because of her small
Greek head, which pleased his artistic
sense. Her parents were poor, and had
hard struggle to support the large
family of which HELENA, or HELCIA,
as she was called in the Polish tongue,
was the youngest. Her first husband
was her guardian, man much older
than herself, and she married him be-
cause her mother told her it was her
duty to do so. His name was MoDRZE-
JEWSKI, the substitution of the letter s'a''
makes it feminine, and MoDRZEJEwsKA
is really the spelling of the name we,
have abbreviated into MoDJEsKA.
%*
Her last husband was the Count
CHARLES BOHEMIA CHLAPOwSKI, a
young Polish patriot and journalist,
who fell desperately in love with Nine.
MoDJESKA the first time he saw her,
and she with him. 1t was a case of love
at first sight, which resulted in a most
happy marriage.
